You're a young girl, you should be at home now. You should be going with boys, you should be going to school, you know, that kind of stuff.
— Taxi Driver · 1976

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker tells a young girl she ought to be at home, going to school and spending time with boys. These activities form a picture of the ordinary life being urged on her. The loose ending, 'that kind of stuff', gives the appeal an uncertain, searching quality.
